My iPod Touch will not restore in iTunes..
Basically, Ive been trying for days to restore my iPod in iTunes, ive tried DFU mode. When I connect my ipod, it says an ipod has been detected in recovery mode and needs restoring..
I get the error code (21) when i try and do this?
Ive never really had trouble with my ipod before and this is really getting me down
The reason i had to restore was because I tried to update my ipod software but my iTunes was not up to date.. I don't know if this is why this is happening?
Someone please help.. I really miss my ipod!
If you need more info just ask, I'll be online all night.
Thank you

IPod Touch will not restore in iTunes
My iPod Touch keeps switching itself off suddenly and as instructed I hold the top/bottom buttons together and it usully comes back on. But, now it will not hold and just keeps switching itself off and on. A couple of times it showed the apps etc. but then switched itself off again. I have now managed to get the "plug into iTunes" picture up and each time I manage to get this and iTunes acknowledges it I try to restore it but it gets so far and the iPod shuts down and it shows that it cannot be restored. A friend has also tried to restore on his computer but gets the same problem. iTunes is up to date and when I originally tried to update the iPod as requested it would not do it as iPod again shut down. Can anyone help please or do I need to go to an Apple store to get a repair. Thanks
Thanks for that. I have already tried this exactly as written. I get half way through the restore and it freezes and tells me that iTunes cannot see the iPod and the iPod has turned itself off again. I have tried doing this procedure for about 2 hours and so has our friend on his computer but the same thing happens.

Why won't it sync? Are you getting any sort of error message during the sync process? If so what is the exact wording of that error message? If this the computer you normally sync the iPod with?

Ipod Touch will not sync with Itunes 12.1.1.4 64 bit
I have recently updated itunes and on the back of doing so my Ipod touch will not sync my library. The Ipod itself is a couple of years old but using iOS 6.1.6.
I have deleted and re-installed Itunes. I have wiped my Ipod to start again. I have set it to sync over Wi-fi and nothing has worked. I physically plug the Ipod in and it gets detected. If I change a setting and click apply it briefly says syncing and then nothing.
I have set automatically download Itunes songs etc etc etc and absolutely nothing seems to get it to sync!
Help!You said " If I change a setting and click apply it briefly says syncing and then nothing.".
How many steps are completed? What is listed in the status bar of iTunes when it stops? -

See:

No, you have to update to iOS 5 via iTunes/USB. One you get iOS you can further update via wifi.

I assume the same old h264 mp4 is still used by the iPod Touch g2
I have a bunch of converted iPod files that I made from home movies etc. I assume if they worked on the iPod they will also work on the iPod Touch Gen 2. If not, maybe I'd better withdraw my order.
